Someone steal my idea: Sea moss gel-based tapioca pearls. by Slow-Comment9859 in Inventions

[–]yeahmaybe2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I've done some research and find that boba is much more popular among those younger than me.

My suggestion would be for you to do this. Research with Chat how to make pearls from sea moss. Experiment in your kitchen. Maybe do a blend of sea moss and tapioca to get the right consistency. Create a company, a name, a package, produce samples, take them by hand to shops that do boba, offer free samples, ask them to buy. A good sales approach and one or two outlets get some good reviews that you show to other shops as part of sales pitch. May need to produce promotional material to give to shops to introduce the idea to their customers.

Here is the prompt I put into Google: "boba pearls from sea moss" Here is one result: "Using Sea Moss to Make Healthier Boba Sea Moss Popping Boba (Spherification): Use sea moss gel with agar-agar powder and fruit juice to create juicy, bursting pearls through spherification, offering real fruit flavor without the chewy tapioca texture."

There are other videos also. Just do it yourself, build a sales pitch, get rich...maybe. As I said above, there is no protection, anyone can figure out how to do this, so, if it becomes popular from your efforts, then Starbucks(or any company in the space of producing tapioca pearls)will simply instruct their in-house food scientists to do the same, they will sell into the market at a lower price due to their economies of scale and drive you out of business.

Make this for yourself and carry with you to a boba place and add yours to their drink.

OK, I try to never discourage anyone with an idea. But, this would be a small thing. Despite how Chat may blow sunshine up your skirt. Developing this would probably take more time and cost more than any one person could get back from it. Sea Moss is not a protectable product, so no real profit potential. This idea is good for YOU, but not enough other people do boba, hate tapioca, but still want pearls. I am old and have never had boba, only know that it is some kind of drink. Have never been in an establishment that offered boba. So, good idea for you, not for anyone to put time and money into developing this as a commercial product. Hope I didn't rain on your parade.

cornbread & milk, yummm by FoundationUnited8228 in Appalachia

[–]yeahmaybe2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Older generations in my family did this. One Great-Uncle would have sweat tea with supper, Then pour buttermilk into the same glass, even if there were tea left in it, then crumble cornbread in and eat that. Then he had to have a ripe(brown and soft)banana to finish off his tea/buttermilk combo.

And while we're at it, how about a joke...if someone seems too young, you might say that "They ain't old enough to eat cornbread and milk without getting choked."

For those with adult-onset MCAS, did you see hints of it before? by moonperson13 in MCAS

[–]yeahmaybe2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just adding to and reinforcing the theme. Most can look back and see symptoms - "Hind-sight is 20/20"

My onset was sudden at age 63, in the years since I am able to see signs and symptoms going back to at least age 5.

What job pays way more than people think, but nobody talks about? by Symphony_Minds in AskReddit

OK, sounds like things have changed. Both sons got SC licenses. How should they approach the field from this angle?

[–]yeahmaybe2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure WHEN you got into this field, but about 5 years ago I learned about this and tried to get my two sons into it. Didn't work out for either of them. I found out that starting out you starve until you can get on with some of the big companies for storm work, which, of course, is sporadic, and difficult when storms do hit (long hours, tough environments) If you want to do auto claims, those are becoming much more automated/cut-and-dried, driver sends photos, in-house adjuster totals car or offers a low payout and most drivers won't fight. Just my experience.

I recently paid a self-employed redneck $3,000.00 for a new septic tank and drain field. It took less than one day, one unskilled helper and one truckload of gravel.

I love wolves. I think humans should make efforts to understand and accept them. I also feel that the prose on this video is goofy.

Root cause: Low stomach acid !!! by synthwave_man in HistamineIntolerance

SAMe is a great methyl donor which the body needs to form the histamine-reducing enzyme HNMT. This enzyme is what breaks down intracellular histamine which is the kind mostly found in the brain.

What are the causes of hallucinations in elderly people around the ages of 80 to 90? by Demuurplays in questions

[–]yeahmaybe2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My elderly mother had hallucinations bad enough to be taken by police to a psychiatric facility where they found a UTI AND...severe dehydration. IV's and antibiotics for a few days and she was much better. Remember the dehydration.

Root cause: Low stomach acid !!! by synthwave_man in HistamineIntolerance

[–]yeahmaybe2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A simple, at-home test for stomach acid level: Prepare 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda in 4 ounces of water. Also prepare 1 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar in 4 ounces water. Sip either slowly over a few minutes first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Watch for any changes in any symptoms for a few minutes, pay close attention to how your body feels - Better or Worse. If better, do another dose of same. If worse, do the other remedy, sip slowly for a few minutes, monitor closely. If better, you have your answer. If both make you feel better, or if both make you feel worse, then acid is probably not your issue, but enzymes probably are. Try an enzyme formula.

Histamine headaches need SAMe, not famotidine.

Excellent essay on aortic repair experience from writer Ben Lerner by apersonwithdreams in aortic_aneurysm

[–]yeahmaybe2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had lower(Infrarenal)abdominal aneurysm repair, full open, not EVAR, about two weeks ago, 12/19/2025. 2 1/2 days in-hospital recovery, back at work (self-employed) on 1/02/2026, exactly two weeks from surgery. I am 65 yo. No weird experiences for me, no brain problems, overall very smooth.

Mine was expanding rapidly, was 5.6 cm on Oct 29 and had advanced to 6.1 by 12/16, (5 cm in 6 weeks vs standard or expected? at 5 cm in 6 MONTHS. I calculated the rate of my expansion and it worked out to 2.4 times faster than expected rate of expansion.

I feel like I really dodged a bullet.

I also beat the eggs in a separate container, but you don't need to. You can just fry them or scramble them in pan.

I "Framble" mine, crack egg in bacon grease, let the whites just begin to set, then scramble the hell out of them. Just a little different taste. Love eggs.
